answer text <p>On 9 April 2018, the Home Office published a new ‘Serious Violence Strategy’, available in the Libraries of both Houses, including 61 recommendations spanning cross government departments to take action to address serious violence, and in particular, the recent increases in knife crime, gun crime and homicide. The strategy puts a stronger emphasis on steering young people away from violence, helping them to change their behaviour and actions before they reach the stage where they are at risk of entering the criminal justice system.</p><p>The Department for Education is making relationships education compulsory in all primary schools, relationships and sex education compulsory in all secondary schools and health education compulsory in all state-funded schools. Under the new reforms, the draft guidance, attached, sets out that pupils should develop positive, respectful relationships, including with their peers; and that violence is never acceptable. The draft guidance also covers awareness of violence and exploitation by gangs, as well as criminal exploitation, for example through gang involvement or ‘county lines’ drugs operations.</p><p> </p><p>Citizenship education also helps to provide pupils with knowledge, skills and understanding to prepare them to play a full and active part in society – including an understanding of the role of law and the justice system in our society and how laws are shaped and enforced.</p><p> </p><p>In addition, the ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’ statutory guidance, attached, sets out the legal duties that all schools must have regard to when carrying out their duties to safeguard and promote the welfare of children.</p>

answer text <p>Our Serious Violence Strategy sets out the Government response to violent crime and includes a number of commitments to provide support to young people and communities to help prevent them being drawn into violent crime in the first place including providing £1.5m through our (anti-knife crime) Community Fund and £17.7m to 29 projects through our Early Intervention Youth Fund. <br> <br>In addition, we recently announced a new £200m youth endowment fund which will provide support over the next 10 years for those young people most at risk of serious violence. This is in addition to resources the Government has already committed through the Troubled Families programme, the National Citizens programme, and the Trusted Relationship Fund.</p> more like this
